A Silent Whisper

        He turned to leave, tears cascaded down her cheeks.

“Don’t… go…”

          A silent whisper.
          The words he needed to hear for him to turn back and rush to her side.

          She lost her voice in exchange for his life. But love was all he needed to gain it back.

“I… love… you…” she said.

          Three simple words.

“I love you too!” he held her close as silent tears streamed down his face.

            A love that’s true, a silent whisper, three simple words and lovers’ crystal tears were all that they needed to stay by each other’s side forever.
